    I don't really know what to say I'm just really lonely right now and I'm trying to distract myself. Ok, I got it I'll right a poem here...

    What is life?
    Is it love?
    Is it knowing that one day you're going to die?
    Is it the wind that blows between your fingers?
    Or is it the birds that soar above the pink horizon?
    I don't know and I don't think I ever will.
    But I know it's not hiding behind the shadows.
    I know it's not letting someone else paint YOUR portrait.
    I know it's not playing his/her game.
    Because the sun wakes up every morning to shine for you.
    Because you hold the paint brush.
    Because you make the rules.
    What is life?
    You decide.

    Awesome poem, I love it...this is one of mine about blackouts

    " Black out"
    Green all over gash on the head wake
    Up in cuffs your future is dead family and
    Friends watch from afar watching you tear
    Yourself apart picking fights with all the neighbours
    Leading to the warrant papers court bound you can't
    Stay sober I guess this is going to happen all over

    I was getting myself prepared for a really long deep post and wondering what I was going to reply. Instead I read a nice poem, cute.
